Jobs at The Whole Caboodle Harrogate 

We need a rainmaker.

Someone who can make it rain with new business. Someone who can make our office, err very wet!

You will have a record of success and ideally in an automotive and/or digital sales (websites) and you will need to have at least 18 months relevant experience. This is not home based or a “hybrid” role – it is working from our office in Harrogate.

We have loads of cool stuff to sell and a great story to tell potential clients, so you will need to be great at identifying and creating opportunities and slick and confident when presenting. There will be the inevitable telephone work and some days will be better than others but as a self-motivated individual you will have bullet proof drive and self-confidence.

We are expanding our range of services and have a unique offering that we want you to tell potential clients about and close the deals. You will be paid handsomely if you are successful, you can also expect to earn plenty too! You will help shape the overall business development strategy and get involved at every level of the business.

Ideally you will be able to find potential pitch opportunities as they occur by using the internet and networking - and you may need to attend events outside of normal business hours.

A charismatic, good writer and conversationalist, knowledgeable about business, understand digital advertising, website builds, brands and design is the kind of thing we are looking for. Someone who can think creatively about how to open up and develop a dialogue with business contacts.

And importantly you should live locally.

Are you the Organised One in your friendship group?
Does Comic Sans make you physically sick?
Are you good at Countdown - letters and numbers?
How's your banter?
Do you live in the Harrogate area?
